Step into the original spirit of espresso with the FAEMA E61 Legend 1 Group Espresso Machine, a semi-automatic icon built for those who see coffee as craft, culture and daily discovery. First introduced in 1961, the E61 marked an important moment in espresso history, becoming an immediate success for its revolutionary technical solutions and elegant stainless steel body. Today, the Legend continues that story with the original design language and materials, refined with modern reliability.

The E61 Legend 1 Group features an automatic boiler fill, built-in volumetric pump, dual pressure gauges for monitoring pump and boiler pressure, and FAEMA’s patented adjustable thermal balancing system. Its volumetric pump delivers the ideal 9-atmosphere pressure and keeps it constant throughout extraction, while the pre-infusion system extends contact time between water and ground coffee before extraction begins. The result is a more balanced espresso that honours aroma, body and flavour.

Designed for boutique cafés, refined office spaces and serious home espresso setups, this machine combines vintage Italian presence with dependable performance. The 1 group Legend includes a 6 litre boiler, 1 steam wand, 1 hot water wand, and a compact 550 × 540 × 565 mm footprint, making it powerful without overwhelming the counter.
